CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

The present application claims the priority of Chinese patent application CN201611161043.3, entitled “Gate Driving Circuit, Driving Method Thereof, and Display Device” and filed on Dec. 15, 2016, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of display, and in particular, to a gate driving circuit, a driving method thereof, and a display device manufactured based on the gate driving circuit and the driving method.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display (TFT-LCD) and Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode (AMOLED) display devices are increasingly used in high-performance display fields due to their characteristics such as small sizes, low power consumption, no radiation and relatively low production costs.

The above-described display device is generally provided with a gate driver on array (GOA) circuit. In the GOA circuit, a gate scan driving signal circuit is formed on a TFT array substrate during a manufacturing procedure of a TFT array of an existing TFT-LCD. In the GOA circuit, an output terminal of each stage is connected with a row of gate line to output a gate scan signal to the gate line so as to realize row-by-row scanning of the gate lines.

With the development of low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) semiconductor TFT, and due to the characteristics of the ultra-high carrier mobility of LTPS semiconductor, a corresponding integrated circuit on a panel has become a research focus. Many people are devoted to research of System on Panel (SOP) and related technologies, which has been realized gradually.

During design of an existing GOA circuit, an All Gate On function is needed to realize black frame insertion, and an All Gate Off function is needed to realize matching TP scanning. FIG. 1 shows an existing circuit, and FIGS. 2 and 3 respectively show forward and reverse scanning sequences. During a process of realizing the All Gate On function of the GOA circuit, electric potentials of Q nodes and P nodes of all-stage GOA units are all pulled down and electric potentials of G_(n) nodes of all stages are all pulled up through a Reset 1 signal. During a process of realizing the All Gate Off function, electric potentials of G_(n) nodes of all stages are all pulled down through a Reset 2 signal.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

In order to present the purpose, technical solution, and advantages of the present disclosure more explicitly, the present disclosure will be further explained in detail in connection with the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, Q node and P node can be introduced in order to ensure stability of an output point G_(n) when a traditional gate driver on array circuit is designed. A signal time-sequence diagram of the gate driving circuit is shown in FIG. 2 during forward scanning, and a signal time-sequence diagram of the gate driving circuit is shown in FIG. 3 during reverse canning. It can be seen from FIG. 1 that, when all G_(n) s are pulled-up, i.e., when all G_(n), G_(n−2) and G_(n+2) are at a high level, both T1 and T3 are in a turned-on state, and there is a large possibility of electric leakage at the Q node. Moreover, U2D and D2U are at relatively a high level and a low level, and when T1 and T3 are simultaneously turned on, a certain conductive path can be formed between U2D and D2U. As a result, the corresponding power consumption will also be increased.

Therefore, the present disclosure provides a gate driving circuit which has All Gate On and All Gate Off functions and is capable of effectively avoiding electric leakage of Q node.
